An Ninh Thu Do (Capital Security) newspaper reported without providing details that fog had probably caused Hai to drive in the wrong lane, leading to the accident.

The truck and its driver escaped virtually unscathed.

Police are investigating.

Tuoi Tre (Youth) newspaper quoted a friend of Hai as saying that the family was returning home after visiting his hometown in the northern province of Phu Tho on February 2, the third day of Lunar New Year.
